Special To Me!

It’s challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. This week our challenge hostess for the month Brenda O’Rear finishes off her month as hostess with one last fun challenge.

Brenda has challenged us to Use a dryer sheet flower on your card. It's a fun and easy technique. You can find a tutorial on how to create these on Splitcoast Stampers.

I don’t use dryer sheets and I am not even sure that if there are dryer sheets available down here in Australia that they are the same as the ones used in the USA … so I decided to create my flower using tissue paper I received in a parcel recently. Other than not being a dryer sheet I have used the same technique as the tutorial above to create my flower.

My card uses MFT Stamps WBD You’re So Special to Me.

Here is the inside of my card. I used the sentiment which is also included in the stamp set.

Don’t forget to check out the CCEE Stampers blog (goes live 12 AM EST) to see the rest of the creations the CCEE Stampers created this week. You can also see more details of their creations on their individual blogs:

LOL, I suppose it's probably always warm enough for clothes to dry easily for you! The tissue looks great with the added glitter, and if you hadn't said I don't think I'd have realised you hadn't used a dryer sheet. It makes a perfectly sweet embellishment to go with your little girl!

Hi I am a stamper from 'downunder' Australia. I have been married to my wonderfully supportive husband for about 40 years. I have 2 beautiful adult daughters,and two adorable Grandchildren .. a boy and a girl :)! I also have one very spoilt dog and a cat who thinks she is in charge of the house. My name StampOwl is not because of any late night stamping sessions (although I have been known to do that at times), but rather it combines my two favourite hobbies - stamping & collecting owls. If it is a choice between the two stamping normally wins!
